~ underprivileged children
filled with joy and wonder by the mesmerizing

live entertainment ~

Kingdom of Dreams, India’s iconic live entertainment
destination celebrated Children’s Day with lesser privileged children from Swablamban,
an NGO that works for the empowerment of
disadvantaged women and children. The children who had never experienced a
leisure destination ever before were filled with excitement at this invitation
from Kingdom of Dreams to experience a day of supreme joy and fun.

Upon arrival the group was given a traditional
welcome at the entrance by the beating of the traditional drums, the nagadas.
The children entered the Kingdom of Dreams premises and were immediately
engulfed in joyous dancing by the folk artists from different regions of India.
Some of the children overcome with happiness and joy danced with the artistes
to the accompaniment of their traditional instruments. The visual feast of the
architecture inside the Culture Gully and the blue skydome left them awestruck!

The highlight of their day was India’s answer to Broadway style musicals, Jhumroo
– celebrating the spirit of Kishore Kumar. The extravagant Bollywood
musical on stage which has completed more than 700 shows, held them spellbound
with its brilliant special effects and enthralling music of Kishore Da. The fun
gags in the musical comedy, Jhumroo kept their laughter rolling and the
throbbing music got them to dance in the aisles.

Expressing her gratitude on the occasion,
Jyotsna Grover of Swablamban said, “The children are immensely overjoyed and happy for this Children’s Day experience provided by Kingdom of
Dreams, which otherwise would not have happened for them considering the
background they come from. I cannot express my thanks in words for making this
dream come true for them”.

An unforgettable day in the lives of children of
a lesser god in the magical and mystical Kingdom of Dreams! A Children’s Day!
